Griffin, Clippers roll past Wizards

Basketball Betting Lines

02/04/2012 - Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - It was another highlight-reel night for Blake Griffin, and the Los Angeles Clippers rolled to a 107-81 victory over the Washington Wizards.

Griffin, who registered 21 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists, wooed the crowd by throwing down some more monster dunks Saturday at Verizon Center.

DeAndre Jordan added 18 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks for the Clippers, who won for the fifth time in six games. They've also won six in a row against the Wizards.

The Clippers, who never trailed, overcame an off night from Chris Paul, who along with Griffin was named starters on the Western Conference All-Star squad. Paul was 1-for-9 from the field and had two points, but did have seven assists.

It was a successful start to a mammoth 11-day, six-game road trip for the Clippers that will see them travel a total of 6,929.5 miles before they land in Los Angeles. The team has upcoming road games against Orlando, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Charlotte and Dallas.

John Wall and Nick Young each scored 14, but the Wizards lost for a fourth straight time and fell to 4-20 on the season. Jordan Crawford scored 12 in a reserve role for Washington, which shot 37.5 percent from the field.

Griffin was active right from the start, as he netted 12 points in the opening quarter, helping the visitors to a 28-17 lead after 12 minutes. Included in that was an alley-oop dunk off a feed from Mo Williams. Griffin had four dunks in the first quarter.

The Clippers shot 65 percent in the second quarter and widened their cushion to 58-34 at the half. LA netted the final nine points of the period, capped by a three-pointer from Caron Butler.

Another Butler three gave the Clippers their largest lead of the night at 74-38 midway through the third. Later in the stanza, Williams delivered a no- look lob to Griffin, who threw down a thunderous two-handed alley-oop jam.

Holding an 87-53 moving to the fourth, the Clippers cruised to their fourth road win in eight tries this season.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
